Ignite by Kaitlyn Davis

Kira Dawson has the
power to burn vampires to a crisp. The problem is, she doesn't know it
yet. The even bigger problem is, she's dating one.

When Kira
Dawson moves to South Carolina, she meets Luke, a blond goofball who
quickly becomes her best friend, and Tristan, a mysterious bad boy who
sends shivers down her spine. Kira knows they're keeping secrets, but
when she discovers Tristan's lust for blood and her own dormant mystical
powers, Kira is forced to fight for her life and make the heartbreaking
decision between the familiar comfort of friendship and the fiery
passion of love.

From bestselling author Kaitlyn Davis comes a
paranormal romance perfect for fans of Twilight, The Vampire Diaries,
and Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Ignite is the first book in the Midnight
Fire series and it is approximately 65,000 words. @goodreads

MY REVIEW:

3 STARS

What do you do when you find out your whole life wasn't true?

Kira
Dawson comes home to her mother, father and sister from boarding
school. She's going to start going to the public school and trying to be
a normal teenager. This doesn't happen. Oh, she meets new friends at
school, gets in with their group. Has a little crush on Luke but he
turns out to be more like a brother and she gets a crush on one of the
evil misfits, Tristan. But is Tristan all that he seems? Is he really as
bad as his friends? Possibly not.

He
was the kind of boy you wanted to comfort and to kiss, the kind you
knew would break your heart yet hoped against all odds wouldn't. The bad
boy with a soft heart, the sort of trap a girl knowingly jumped into.

I
saw a lot of Twilight in this book (I love Twilight and that's not a
big deal) and it threw me off at first. The blurb mentions Twilight, The
Vampire Diaries and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I can see Kira being a
strong female character like Elena in VD and Buffy. She gets told she's a
conduit and she can do all of this stuff, she might can destroy the
world. I think she handled it all pretty good and she does kick some
butt in the book.

I liked the book well enough, I loved Tristan
and I loved Kira's character. She is a kind person that takes on what
she has to take on and does it good. There are just random things that
didn't make this a 4 or 5 star book for me and I can't quite put my
finger on it. Either way there are plenty who love the book and plenty
who will love it more than me.

FYI: at the time of this review it's free on kindle =)

I
might continue with he series later on because I do have a crush on
Tristan and I love the concept of the Conduits. Hopefully I will love
the rest of them more.
